Abstract: (Elsevier)

Two mechanisms for forward, correlated neutron emission in heavy ion collisions motivate the construction of compact hadron calorimeters to be placed downstream of interaction regions at RHIC and LHC. Plans are now underway to build such detectors. Here we discuss recent progress in understanding their role and performance requirements.
